Score Rationale
Metalware has minimal verifiable team information beyond YC acceptance, and no visible government contracts, customer names, or funding details beyond YC's implicit seed check. Firmware cybersecurity is a real DoD need with moderate novelty, but lacking concrete evidence of traction, the company scores as an early-stage bet with validation still pending.
